Summary: A satiric novel about the allure and peril of money, revolving around the inheritance of a dust-heap where the rich throw their trash. When the body of John Harmon, the dust-heap's expected heir, is found in the Thames, fortunes change hands surprisingly, raising to new heights 'Noddy' Boffin, a low-born but kindly clerk who becomes 'the Golden Dustman.' Charles Dickens's last complete novel encompasses the great themes of his earlier works: the pretensions of the nouveaux riches, the ingenuousness of the aspiring poor, and the unfailing power of wealth to corrupt all who crave it.
